Quitters

Snarky. yes. It’s still okay to laugh. This picture from Jazz Fest this past weekend was taken by a friend of a friend and forwarded to me

McCain needs to read a newspaper or watch some TV

“That is why we need to go back is to have a conversation about what to do -rebuild it, tear it down, you know, whatever it is,” McCain Said What a MORON. Hey Johnnie, how about you do some research and get back to us. You can start with today’s latimes editorial by John Barry […]

Not Your Typical Monday

Monday I decided I knew better than to try and head to the office. On Saturday we got notices informing us that a movie stunt scene was going to be filmed on our block and the neighborhood was going to be heavily restrict all day long both driving and parking. And I noticed too that […]

$unnamed_vendor says, “Doh!”

So at work I’ve been talking to $unnamed_vendor about their product that we’ve been purchasing in relatively small numbers up to this point. I work for a company with a couple of large scale data centers, one here in the area and the other in Little Rock as well as some smaller sites. From an […]

Good weekends in New Orleans

French Quarter Fest afterglow

No Monday can take a great French Quarter Fest weekend away. It’s a classic only-in-New-Orleans feeling that is Monday morning kryptonite. This may be heresy, but I prefer FQF to Jazz Fest these days. It’s all local music that you can here for free. It’s spread throughout the Quarter. And it has all the food […]

Rest in Peace, Dr. Morris

Dr. Ashley Morris passed away yesterday unexpectedly in Florida. I never had the opportunity to meet him in person but I am nonetheless stunned and saddened. He was loud, proud, funny and one of our city’s most passionate advocates. I read his postings nearly every day and regret never having met him in person. His […]
